Return to: 1500 Student Life and Services  


1534.10 Student Programs

The Panther Activities Council (PAC) plans and produces social, educational, entertainment and health related programs for Perimeter College students. The structure of the PAC is the same on all five campuses of Perimeter College. PAC members gain experience in event planning, marketing, public relations and leadership. Executive board members are appointed after an application and interview process. Executive Board member positions include: president, vice president, assessment and marketing director, arts & culture director, entertainment director, traditions director and wellness and service director.

Whenever possible, PAC collaborates with Spotlight Programs Board to sponsor university-wide events for all Georgia State University students. However, because there is a separate fee structure for students pursuing a baccalaureate or graduate degree vs. an associate degree, Perimeter students may need to pay an additional fee to attend programs sponsored by Spotlight Programs Board.

1534.20 Student Media

Learn the different aspects of media, such as writing, editing, producing, DJing and selecting outside content, by doing each task in a professional setting. Student Media is highly reflective of the students’ vision and participation. Student Media’s goals are to reflect the state of the Georgia State campuses, provide quality content to the campuses and city community and prepare students for a wide range of media presentation in their post-graduate career.

The Signal is the Georgia State University student newspaper and is published by students from each campus. Students write, edit, take photographs and contribute artwork. Editors learn to use page design software to construct pages and to maintain The Signal’s online products. Students also participate in advertising sales and distribute the newspaper. Students can also learn audio production for podcasts and radio in The Signal’s isolation recording booth

All students are eligible to contribute, regardless of program of study. Certain editors may receive small stipends. For more information, visit The Signal office on the Clarkston campus in CB1110 or call 678-891-3381.
